+# Debloat Windows 10
+
+This project is an effort to collect scripts which help *debloating* Windows
+10.
+
+I personally find the state Windows 10 comes in quite shocking / scary and want
+to have very slim, scriptable solution to remove and disable Windows 10's
+features most people do not need nor want.
+
+The scripts provided consists of Powershell scripts and Registry keys, you
+should have no problems altering and using them to fit your needs. Do not
+forget to set the execution policy for Powershell scripts. And of course, how
+have to run them with administrative priveledges.
+
+    PS> Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
+
+Look at the scripts most of them are only a couple of lines long and it should
+be pretty obvious what they are doing.
+
+## Contribute
+
+I would be happy to extend the collection of scripts. Just open an issue or
+send me a pull request.
